sims 3 dell inspirion 15r special edition

Hi, I brouight a brand new dell inspirion 15r special edition and downgraded the software to windows 7 from windows 8. and installed most of the sims 3 expansion packs along with some custom content, I was playing the game, building a house and half way through the house, It suddenly crashed, I tried to play it another time but it still froze in the exact same place, i am wondering why my computer crashed after we installed windows 7 and all the expansion packs for the sims
